Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to share the transformative vision of 2 nurse executives and how this vision paved the way for the development of a revolutionary model that changed care delivery.

This article will discuss the spark that created the impetus for the creation of this metamorphic, interprofessional care delivery model and how this model unburdens the workload of the nurses to idealize the art and science of professional nursing practice.
